The blue kills that Brawl. Granted, a few strokes of a paintbush and problem solved. However, that prime is hopeless.

In terms of the toys, I kind of like Prime's colors. But not enough to buy one. Its pretty much another Ultra Magnus repaint to me. Brawl on the other hand looks funny with the neon blue colors. The tan is good for a desert camo, but the blue bits made him look cheap. I like the green version more.

Ah! But you assume that he's diesel-powered now. With the Allspark Energy, they might not need any of the normal fuel that you would assume they would need. It would make sense with all this "stealth" business that they keep bandying about.

I'd be more likely to buy that than either of these guys! An ice cream truck TF would be incredible... now THERE'S a potential Payload custom idea.
Desert Brawl is cute, but I'd prefer a repaint of one of his smaller incarnations to this new leader anyday.

It seems that characters don't stay KIA in this line, repaint fodder FTW....

Seen the toy, but haven't read the bio. So the G1 deco is actually the real Jazz? LOL

"Prime, we couldn't save him [Jazz}..."
-Ironhide
In the bio, Ratchet DOES repair Jazz but Jazz decides that just because they're in disguise they don't have to look TOO plain. Hence the repaint.

And as for Prime, if he does not need his Ionic Blaster due to his power-ups, why does he still have it???
Hasbro need to sack whoever has been doing the movie Bio's, they really are bad quality stuff.

Well, I wouldn't exactly credit Ironhide with being too bright in the film.
Of course, if you're feeling particularly optimistic, Ironhide's intention could have simply been to say "Prime, we couldn't save him... before Megatron tore him in half. It'll take Ratchet months to get him back online."

I can't seem to find them, either. I can't even see the toys listed in the products page.

I get the same problem Mulla, its because we are automatically re-directed to the Aussie Hasbro site. I find clicking the link, letting it load, then closing the tab/window and clicking the link again works best for me. Does not work 100% of the time, but it helps.

M1's are turbine powered, not diesel.
Also, does Prime's "stealth" bio and the part about new servos on his joints mean that this Prime isn't as ratchety in his joints as original LP prime?
